Blended
Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve is a multi-award-winning blend (lots of gold medals, appropriately) created by master blender Jim Beveridge to celebrate nearly 200 years of the art of blending. The Gold Label Reserve was relaunched in 2012 as a replacement for the popular Gold Label 18 and is made from whiskies across Speyside, Islay, the Highlands, and Lowlands.
It’s built around a core of single malt whisky from Clynelish, but also features spirit from the likes of Cardhu, Blair Athol, and grain whisky from Cameronbridge, all chosen for their sweet, honeyed qualities. It’s delicious neat but also mixes well, like in serves such as the bespoke Gold & Apple created especially for this blend (recipe below). Although we think for the best effect, you should drink it while singing Spandau Ballet’s classic ‘Gold’. That’s what we do.
Gold & Apple cocktail recipe
Prep time: Five minutes
Servings: Makes one serving
Ingredients:
40ml Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve
75ml apple juice
75ml soda water
An apple slice and/or a sprig of rosemary to garnish
Method:
Fill a Highball glass with ice then add 40ml Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve. Pour 75ml apple juice and then 75ml soda water on top, then garnish with an apple slice and/or a sprig of rosemary.
Honey and heather with thick caramel notes and a subtle nutmeg spice. Dried meadow flowers and a hint of fresh banana.
Smooth and succulent with a honeyed sweetness that's typical of Johnnie Walker. There's more to this though, the floral elements are quite prominent and there's a spiced sweet vanilla note too.
Long, sweet and toffee-like.
A typically easy drinking blend from Johnnie Walker, this will not disappoint fans of the style.
Being a blue label lover I was a little surprised how delightful the gold label reserve taste I felt great the night and great the morning after glad I have 5 bottles left I just returned from st Thomas where I paid 50,00 for 750no not bad I also got 4 bottles of blue label on the cruise ship can't wait to get started on one of the blue label thanks ujw
С уиски от Clynelish... Без възраст, бъчви...какво!?
Easy to drink for new drinkers and headache in the next morning due to young blended spirits.
I think it's good I do prefer the platinum over this one
Like many others who posted around 2015 when the Gold Reserve hit the shelves and the Gold 18yo was still in stock the only good part was the cheaper price (and predated the release of the JW Platinum 18yo). The Reserve is but a shadow of its predecessor. Lacks character, little smokiness, bland on the palette and I had both Golds on a side by side tasting. Realising that the Centenary blend would vanish I managed to acquire 5 bottles every time I traveled to Taipei because there folks only go for Blue Label. That was in 2013 and have 1 bottle left - sad day when that one goes coz the Platinum Label is poor successor to the Gold 18yo; coarser mouth-feel, lacks subtle nuances that the Gold 18yo had and costs way more.
